Yes you are right, but maybe in some way that just underlines the sad decline of the town.....people are no longer wanting to spend money on books......maybe they can't afford them, maybe they don't read, maybe they aren't printed in the right language......maybe they would rather do other things.
Doesn't bode well for this guy making much money does it?...which might be why the LT wants to stir up some emotion.
